To Raise or Not To Raise?  That Is The Question!

You’re in a dilemma. Summer is winding down. You have unlevel concrete. Your driveway, walkway and patio all pose tripping hazards. A little snow cover and that unlevel concrete becomes even more dangerous. Should you tough it out and wait for Spring or should you raise your slab now BEFORE winter?

Great question! However, there’s more to consider than just tripping...

Ever clear your slab with a shovel and hit and uneven section only to break your shovel or practically dislocate your shoulder? Most falls (especially for the elderly) occur during winter months. No one can afford to be off work due to injury and certainly no one wants to be liable for someone incurring an injury while on your property!

Then there’s Springtime when the snow begins to melt. Uneven concrete leads to pooling and a cold snap or overnight cooling could cause ice to build up presenting another fall hazard. Not to mention the additional erosion as water runs off under the slab. This often causes the slab to sink even more.

Do you have to rip up the old slab and pour a new one? Sounds messy..and expensive! You’re right! Are there other options available?
